Trouble tracking new Norah Jones LP

I have the new 180 g and it jumps so much I can't track even one song. finished the first side in about 10 minutes! And btw, 09rdking, that's why they make chocolate and vanilla ;~)

Johnnyb53- my rig tracks the first NJ 180 gm LP just fine so I'm thinking its the pressing, now that I hear others are having trouble, too. I've been reluctant to try the damping fluid; my system does not, I don't think, need to be "toned down" (pun not intended) and with the Schroeder's unique pseudo-unit pivot, I'm not sure how you would remove the fluid if you decided you did not like it.

Madfloyd. The damping fluid is for damping the arm. If you take the VPI arm off of its mount, there is a small cup=like affair with that big spike that holds your arm. That is where the fluid goes. Whether to use fluid at all is up to you. You didn't mention your cartridge, but, first listen carefully to a record just as is. Then remove the arm (no need to unplug it if you're careful), and put in that damping fluid 1 drop at a time while listening. It will probably ( with many cartridges) get better and better as you add drops of the fluid and relistening all the time. There will then be a point after a few drops, that the sound will become stuffy and less good. Take a toothpick, or a cotton swab and remove that extra drop of fluid. Voila!!

Genesis- the vinyl looks fine and was cleaned with Nitty Gritty prior to first (attempted) play.

Stringreen - thanks so much for enlightening me. My VPI sounds horrible, so that may be something worth trying.
